RE: OpenMic songwriters Challenge week 7 - The Right Place and/or The Right Time
Haha yes my man. I actually like that you took the theme literal and used the duality of it. Pretty smart in my eyes.
It's pretty doom and gloom which was a nice change to hear form you (I hope you're okay lol).
The piano was also an interesting focus to grasp onto. Those little instrumental segues were keeping my attention nicely, felt like an extension of the doom and gloom expressed in a more intimate way.
BTW, u say it's over next week... is it... mwhahahaha I'm pretty sure it's going to run it again lol.
dont worry JB Im totally fine! I think that even though I started by wanting to make a joke out of the and/or theme, that next line (either one would do me fine) seemed to ensure that the subject matter was melancholic.... and then I find, once I start jamming with a subject, I get quite in to it (although like I said I did struggle for lyrics a bit, and perhaps that was because Im not actually having the existential crisis that the song suggests!) Glad you enjoyed it though bro :)
And yeah....Im sure this competition will run again as its been so successful......but MAN I hope they give us a bit of a break first! Also, meno and pechiche have been suggesting taking some of the songs further and doing some collaborative studio work which would be kind of cool....I think a lot of people probably feel that some of their songs are actually worth exploring a bit further and it would be nice to follow some of that up, instead of always discarding half written songs to move on to the next one.
